Are Agents informing their landlord customers?

by steaming

Are landlords who employ agents receiving any updates and analysis of the White Parper re letting that Gove put forward? Today the BBC are featuring “tenants pay unaffordable rents” and also putting forward Generation Rent - who are demanding rent caps and no evictions because of “cost of Living.”...

Landlords room in house with two rooms let to tenants

by TimberCladding

I'm thinking of letting a property 'by the room' to two separate tenants. They could be friends.
Its a 3 bed
I'd like to retain one room and a bathroom for myself. Not my main residence, but I would use it for a bit of peace at times and for my work.
I would like amenable tenants...

Reply to If tenants stay after Section 21 expires, can they just leave at any time?

by DPT57

I think that the key issue is that its so difficult/time consuming/costly to evict a tenant these days that you would be mad to quibble if they just leave....

If tenants stay after Section 21 expires, can they just leave at any time?

by freddycd15

Hello all,

The tenant is on a Statutory Periodic Tenancy. If a valid Section 21 notice has been served and the date to leave expires but the tenant is still in the flat (given no court order or bailiffs are present):

1) Does the Statutory Periodic Tenancy still stand?

Accelerated Possession when tenancy agreement has expired

by Dylan2022

Hello everyone,

I am terribly worried. I was hoping you could help me.

I have given my tenant notice under section 21 because I need the property to live in. The notice period comes to an end in a few days and the tenant has informed me she cannot leave as she has not found...

Reply to Can I serve Section 21 Notice?

by Rubz2009

Final question from me, again appreciate the advise. Can someone explain the difference between grounds 8 and ground 10. My tenant is 3 months overdue on rent so i know ground 8 applies. I will be using ground 11 also for consistent late payments. Does ground 10 apply to me?

Can I serve Section 21 Notice?

by Rubz2009

Hi was hoping for some advise.
I have tentants in my property on a AST agreement which started in 2013 and has been rolling to date. Tenants are behind on their rent by a couple of months (during covid times which they believe they still do not need to pay) and also always late on monthly payments...

Reply to letting agent or do it yourself?

by blueash

I use an agent (several properties) and pay 8% for "enhanced management" - basically I don't have to do anything apart from approve repairs over £200. I suppose if you had just one property you could cope but I think the agents are worth paying for.

I did have a bad experience...

letting agent or do it yourself?

by BIGGYBIBIG

Hi guys,
Do you guys turn your properties over to letting agents to manage for you?
If so what are we talking in terms of fees around 10%?
Are letting agents trustworthy, i have heard many horror stories?

If you were to do it yourself without using a letting agent
